I am a full-time student at Boston University concentrating in finance and global business. As a first-generation college student, being able to attend college and pursue a degree is already a great achievement for me. I believe that by receiving this scholarship, my college experiences will be enhanced and made more enjoyable with less financial burden on me and my family.” Qian Wen Li My dad has owned his own multiline representative company since 2000. From a young age, I was fortunate to help with his company. I helped him prepare for trade shows and meetings with customers. I learned how to strategically pack our van to max capacity for shows and put together sample packs for customers. This scholarship will benefit my family and assist in financing my college education. Thank you so much." Jacob Hareid Thank you for giving me and my family this amazing scholarship offer. This helps my single mom pay for some of my school fees at Sonoma State University. This scholarship allows me to focus a little more on school and not worrying about having to work to pay my fees. This is greatly appreciated!” Ryan Kirkbride As I pursue my degree in business administration, international studies and economics, I hope to accomplish even a fragment of what Mr. Bill Vernon achieved in his impressive professional career. From what I’ve read, I know that he not only excelled in growing The Vernon Company, but also had a heavy focus in various philanthropic causes. The legacy he leaves behind serves as an inspiration to young professionals like me who would also like to make a difference in the world.” Christine Keller PPEF Scholarships | FEATURE | OCTOBER 2022 | 51
